The Gloucester opened fire on Breslau whose first shot fell short. Breslau answered with thirty shots, only two hit. Two Gloucester boats were damaged. After the opening volley the crew stayed steady firing rapidly. One sailor nearly swallowed his chaw of baccy when the first shot fell short. He spat on the next shot for luck and half the Breslau funnel was blown away. The next shot cleared the Breslau quarter deck and disabled its aft gun, after which the sailor smiled.

Fall Plowing Guidance for North Dakota Farms

Fall plowing should begin as early as possible to reduce weed seed germination and improve soil nutrients. A 14 inch gang plow at 18 miles per day can plow five acres daily, twenty acres weekly, and about 130 acres monthly, with shocks set over as needed to avoid delays from wet weather. Continuous plowing with rest for horses minimizes downtime and improves overall field efficiency.
